Making local and international calls from your landline

Our landlines offer reliable fixed voice connections allowing you to make and receive calls with a range of free customer calling services and added extras.

Line rental and tariffs

Included in the line rental is the access, maintenance and upkeep of the telephone line from your home to the telephone exchange (excluding equipment connected to the line). Our lines are not dependant on mains power so they will continue to work, even when the power is down.

Rental for residential lines is only a £8 a month.

A £50 deposit applies for new customers who do not sign up for payment by direct debit.

Cheap calls with 884

884 is a low cost alternative when making international calls. Calls are routed via the lowest cost path as opposed to dialling direct using dedicated lines to carry traffic.

All calls are subject to a 2.5p initial charge, plus rates which are charged per minute. There are four rates depending on the destination of your call, which apply for any period of the day. Select a country and region from the drop down menus to view the dialling codes and charge rates.

To dial: 884 + 00 + country code + region code + destination number.
